Grill giggled as she floated down to meet Simirror.
Grill: Actually, I was showing my friends around Pop Star! They came here a few days ago and didn’t know their way around here, so I though why not?
She points to one of the floating onions beside her; this one has a long curly tuft of hairgrass and big, tough-looking eyes.
Grill: This is Pepper…
Pepper: ’Sup.
She points to the second, his hairgrass resembling a palm tree and with beady black eyes.
Grill: …then there’s Salt…
Salt: Hi!
She points then to the third and last, his eyes nearly closed and drowsy and with barely two shoots of hairgrass.
Grill: …And then there’s Sugar!
Sugar: *gives Simirror a small smile and waves shyly*
Grill turns to face Simirror, her eyes shining with curiosity.
Grill: And what were YOU doin’ out here? That looked like some neat magic you were doin’!
Simirror tipped his hat in greeting to Pepper, Salt, and Sugar. They were quite cute looking, if he did say so himself. He wondered why Grill was the largest onion he’s ever seen, but he tipped his hat back and went on to answer Grill’s question.
“I was merely practicing my magical arts, keeping them sharp. That magic was nothing but mere shine magic, to show off. I do like the sparkles, you know?” he chuckled lightly,” I’ve been lazing off on the stuff, so I thought to make sure I didn’t get rusty.”
